"Goodnight" lyrics

"Goodnight"

I'll walk in rivers over you
I'll sell all your things at half the price too
I'll know all the songs you like
And I'll play 'em twice
Just out of spite

Sorry that I took all of our friends
But, in fairness, you shoulda put up a better defence
And the jury's out, and the verdict's in
And, no matter what, you know I'm gonna win
You know I'm gonna win

This time I'm gonna get it right
I'll leave the past behind
And your bags outside

Now that there's minutes on my hands
I'll go build a house on no man's land
Take a second to think about
The words that fall right out of your mouth
And I'll walk rivers over you

This time I'm gonna get it right
I'll leave the past behind
And your bags outside
Goodnight
Won't even wave goodbye
And now I'm sleeping tight
Goodnight

I'm sorry that it didn't end well
But you never were a good pretender
I'm sorry that it didn't end well
But you didn't help yourself
I'm sorry that you're bitter now
And I've a sweet September
That's why it didn't end well
You didn't help yourself

Right, I'm gonna get it right
I'll leave the past behind
And your bags outside
Goodnight
Won't even wave goodbye
And now I'm sleeping tight
Goodnight

Don't cry on my shoulder when I say, "It's over"
Hate that I recognise your crocodile tears now, now, now
Goodnight, night, night, night
